Front bearings

Post by nicktennear »

About to replace discs using Brickwerks discs and thinking about bearings, found these on Amazon at a ridiculously cheap price. Used the seller before and been pleased with quality. Too good to be true?Image

I use B&B (tierod69 on Ebay) a lot as they are reasonably local to me, they do some very good prices on the same make parts as everybody else is selling. Just saved near £30 on a pair of heat exchangers compared to the next cheapest supplier.

Just hope they aren't Chinese cr*p that need doing again in 12mths, personally I would buy from Baxter as he supplies OE quality and it's not a job you want to be doing again any time soon is it?
